A farmer residing near Fairfield, Iowa,
started fish pond four years ago with three
German carp, about two inches long and
very small. He now reports his stock at 49,
600 after having sold hundreds for stocking
ponds in other parts of the State. The fish
are said to be as tame as chickens, and
source of great pleasure to the family. There
is food for reflection in this statement for
those who like carp.

Industrious members as can be found in this

Democrats, but they are always in their seats
ready to answer roll call, work for the best

Business Booming.

No matter if people will per-
sist in saying it is dull season,
it's patent to all that we are do
ing a rushing business. 1t is
very plain that our efforts to
please the people in goods and
prices are appreciated, as the
numerous visits to our large
store will testify.
The general public read our
advertisements, think over them,
and can see that they are not
only safe in buying of the ''Lit-
tie Dutchman," but that they
are getting the best, newest and
purest goods in the market at
prices that surprise all.
1t has always been the aim
of J. G. Saur to save money for
his customers. This you should
not forget, and also remember
that when he does you up pre-
scription he uses nothing but
strictly pure goods. His drugs
and chemicals are pure and
fresh, and he sells them cheap
er than any other house in this
section of Ohio, at retail or
wholesale. If you want good
results from medicine, it will
surely follow by getting your
medicines of the "Little Dutch
man." at whose store you will
find every known remedy for
every known disease. He will
not sell any articles but what
he knows to be pure and fresh.
And, as this is the season of the
year when you are probably
thinking of repapering and re-
painting your house, we ask
your careful attention to Saur's
stock of Wall and Window Pa
>pers. He is still and always has
been the "Wall Paper King"
and this season especially he
has outdone himself in selecting
styles and patterns that will
please all. Prices on these
goods are so low that the poor
est man of a family can afford
to make his home comfortable
and attractive. There is moth
ing that adds more to a home
than a neat pattern of paper on
the walls. -@
Bear in mind that Saur car
ries the largest stock of Wall
Paper in this section of country.
He buys direct from the manu-
facturers in large quantities,
and always gives his customers
the benefit Of this, as it enables
him to sell at cheaper prices
than smaller dealers can sell at.
It is indeed astonishing that
such a small outlay will buy
such beautiful paper and add
SO much to- your homes. But
come in and try it.
Also, Saur's is headquarters
for Paints and Oils, His Dia-
mond White Lead is known the
world over to be the best, and
his stock consists of all varieties
and colors, ready mixed or not,
just to suit yourselves. This is
the time of the year to do paint
ing and those contemplating
fixing up' a little this spring
SHOULD come in and see Saur
and his immense stock of Paints
and Oils. He has also a full
stock of Brushes, ofall sizes and
for all uses.
The ''Little Dutchman's'
Book department. is a marvel,
and needs only to be examined
to stamp wonder upon the coun-
tenances Of aA-for he sells
them SO cheap, almost giving
away some Of them.

A good way to find whether seeds will
sprout is to fill gallon crock nearly full of
mellow soil and cover with one end of piece
of muslin twice as large as a crock, wet
through with hot water. Sprinkle the seeds
on the cloth, throw the other end of it
over them, but half an inch of soil on top,
and keep in warm place for four or five
days, then turn back the cloth and see what
you have. -...

School Girls for Wives.

Special to the Bee.
HoLGATE, March IA very peculiar affair
has just come to light. which is causing much
comment. In our village are two middle
aged widowers. One buried his wife about
three weeks since, the other perhaps two
months ago. Each has a 4-year-old daughter,
and it is reported that they have agreed to
exchange daughters to become wives. Last
week one of the bereaved husbands obtained
marriage license to marry the daughter of
his friend. A minister was solicited to per-
form the marriage ceremony, but on account
of the tender age of the young lady, he de
clined to do SO. A justice also declined for
the same reason. When last seen, the amor
GUS bridegroom was searching for some one
to tie the knot.
Judge Meekison has revoked the marriage
license, and it may be the parties will get
themselves into trouble for swearing falsely
in order to procure the license.-ED.
